Now I know why You're floating away Like a white balloon Untied today or last night I like the sounds You make when you sleep Like you're eating a meal Grinding your teeth or just breathing Oh my stars Crying, "Oh my stars!" Oh my stars Can't strangle anyone who has light In their life Put your mouth here on my belly Put your fingers in my hair After mountains there are valleys We can fall asleep there Sometimes it's hard Thinking about how the plans we made Won't happen today or tonight I'm trying real hard To not make you feel Like you've done something wrong By leaving the chips open (I won't wake you up) Singing, "Oh my stars" Oh my stars Oh my stars Can't strangle all my friends and their wives And their sons' wives Put your neck here on your best friend's Hold your mouth up to the phone Use the seatbelt like a bookend We can sleep when we get home
